Suape serves ships 365 days a year without
any restrictions in regards to tide schedules.

and laser ship docking system that enables
effective, secure control and upholds the
same technical standards as the most important

chemical products, alcohols, vegetable
oils, etc.) constitutes more than 80% of
the movement. The port can serve ships
